About SEP-631
Septerna is developing SEP-631, a selective oral small molecule Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) negative allosteric modulator (NAM) for the treatment of patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and other mast-cell driven diseases. MRGPRX2 is known to play an important role in mast cell activation and degranulation which, in combination with other inflammatory mediators, lead to debilitating symptoms for patients. In addition to CSU, MRGPRX2 is highly and uniquely expressed on mast cells implicated in multiple diseases, including asthma, atopic dermatitis, interstitial cystitis, and migraine. In preclinical studies, SEP-631 demonstrated potent and long-lasting inhibition of MRGPRX2 and blocked mediator-induced skin extravasation in mice engineered to express the human MRGPRX2 receptor.
